This moment around I review them backwards order, and also seeing brand name- brand-new web links. And once again Sam Vimes tries to make sense of a world where sometimes the crimes are so big you can’t arrest everyone involved.The extremely very first time I take a look at the Evening See collection I review them in order. In “Jingo” we get to see our old friends from the watch show some surprising sides: Nobby as feminist is especially fun. A similar idea is later used to heartbreaking effect in the book “Night Watch”. But it also has moments of almost unbearable poignancy, as when the Disorganizer reports on events from the alternative timeline down the other leg of the Trousers of Time.

“Jingo” is about the foolishness of war, and takes its title from an old song: “We don’t want to fight but by jingo if we do,We’ve got the ships, we’ve got the men, and got the money too!” It has hilarious moments: seeing Vetinary playing his shell game among the Klatchians is, as they say in tvtropes, a crowning moment of both awesome and funny. This time I’m reading them in reverse order, and seeing new connections. The first time I read the Night Watch series I read them in order. Review #3 Jingo! audiobook by Terry Pratchett He’s an author with a unique capacity to deliver a consistently on-brand performance. All Pratchett books are fun and a little bit chaotic. Just a different experience than listening to the books. Vimes as played by Jason Statham–Vetinari presented by Benedict Cumberbatch (possibly the least original casting in history)–my preferred casting of David Jason as Corporal Colon instead of as Albert. I liked populating the book with the performers I like for the roles. But after listening to most of the rest of Mr. It brings an exquisite dimension to Pratchett to hear the British timing in the lines. The dudes they had doing the audio are top shelf. Glad to read rather than listen to this book.

Because Arabic means more than Muslim, and Muslim means more than terrorist. Which may have more to do with squeamishness than politics. And that might not fly with an American audience in this generation. See, this is about a war with a group that’s fairly Arabic looking. I wonder if it’s all the warry overtones. Well, it had been, but it hasn’t been released on Audible in the U.S. For some reason, this book hasn’t been done as a recorded book.
